Isolation and characterization of novel F-plasmid sopB mutants defective in gene silencing.

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG - 1 Jan 2002

Kubo Y, Kim S-K, Hanai R

Abstract excerpt

The product of the sopB gene on the Escherichia coli F-plasmid has been shown to silence genes in the vicinity of its binding region, sopC, when overexpressed. We searched for mutants defective in SopB-dependent silencing by screening for a plasmid incompatibility phenotype, in order to examine the relationship between gene silencing and the intracellular localization of SopB, as revealed by a green fluorescent...
